Supertramp - Goldrush lyrics

rate me

less my heart and soul

I've discovered gold

Spread the news around

Get the ship afloat

A rock and roll the boat

Let's get into town

I am living down by the creek

Getting mired in the mud

No liquor for a week

I feel the cold in my blood

Here's a very busy lady

On her knees in the sludge

Well I do believe she's crazy

You know she's working like a drudge

Bless my heart and soul

She's discovered gold

Spread the news around

Get the ship afloat

A rock and roll the boat

And let's get into town

Even though she smelt like a drain

She's an angel to me

Her intentions are plain

And the whiskey is free

Breaking out another bottle

Keep it cool in the dirt

Well it's a water baby heaven

I got the papers in my shirt

Bless my heart and soul

We've discovered gold

Spread the news around

Get the ship afloat

A rock and roll the boat

And let's get into town

Bless my heart and soul

We've discovered gold

Spread the news around

Get the ship afloat

A rock and roll the boat

And let's get into town

You work hard all your life little honey

But you can't afford to save any money

You lay it down you leave the town

To see what you could find

For more than 20 years you're a diggin'

Then you can't believe what you are a pickin'

It's a piece of change just like a mountain range

Whoopee we're gonna lay it down
